Re: Action Pistol Match
On Sunday May 31, 2015 the Matamoras Rod and Gun Club will be holding an action pistol match.
Final set up at 8:30am
Registration payment at the club house begins at 9:00am
Registration closes at 9:30am
Safety briefing and walkthrough at 9:30am
First shots at 10:00am (club rule)
Pre-registration for the main match is required with instructions given below.
Match fee is: $10.00 for Matamoras club members
$15.00 for non-members
Juniors under 18 are free
Refreshments will be available around 11:30am via the hot dog vendor we have been using.
There will be 6 stages with a total round count of approx. 78
FOLLOWING THE MAIN MATCH, weather permitting, I will be offering the opportunity to shoot a BUG (back up gun) side match. There will be 2 stages. One stage will be 5 strings of 5 rounds each starting from the low ready and fired at three different target arrays with reloads off the clock (25 rounds). The second stage will be two strings of 12 rounds each while drawing from a holster and with reloads on the clock so you might want to bring a 6 shooter to play with. (24 rounds) BUG match round count total is 49 rounds.
If you don't have a servicable holster or pouches for the BUG gun; I will allow a table pick up start and reloads placed on another table down range.
BUG match fee is $5.00 member or non-member, Juniors are free.

Re: Action Pistol Match
Due to the weather forecast of rain and showers for Sunday morning and early afternoon, I have decided to change the format from the stages that I previously sent out to you to an all steel match.
The stages will be outlaw steel stages in unusual layouts and ways to engage the standard plates. All targets will be between 8 and 12 yards. One stage will even require a reload. The number of attempts (strings) will vary from 2 to 4 to 5. The total round count will be 90 but bring extra for sure.
The reason for my changing the format is that the steel stages allows the competitor to shoot in a stationary area from under a position of cover, as in out of the rain, as well as keeping the timer, RO and scorekeeper dry. Also, painting steel to restore targets in the rain is not a problem as it would be trying to paste paper targets under wet clear plastic bags.
Unfortunately, this format will reduce my ability to run four squads down to three. Upon registration, there will be some changes in squad assignments to keep things balanced.
I thought you should be informed before you got to the range in case steel shooting is not of interest to you.
Stages are attached for your review.
If you are still coming, dress for the weather, rain and only in the 60's.
BUG match will still be on IF the weather clears out in the afternoon.
